The Reagan generation, thinking that the world was safe again, promptly went back to sleep.

Carter shook the country to the core, and it only took one sleeping generation to bring us another one.

Makes Reagan's words all the more poignant…….

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

My timing has always sucked. A day early here, a year late there. I served in Berlin from May '78 through July '80. Jimmy Carter gave a speech in Berlin when I was there, but I was not motivated to attend. Obviously, it must have been less than stirring. If it had been Reagan, however …….

Moving….

You can still use this site but no new news articles will be posted here.

I do appreciate everyone who has participated on CVN for the past nine months. I hope you will now join us at the new site as we continue to enlighten ourselves in our fight to save the America we all love and respect.
